UN REPORT HIGHLIGHTS FLOW OF WEAPONS FROM LIBYA, ACROSS TURKEY TO SYRIA

UN Report Stresses Flow of Weapons from Libya to Terrorists in Syria across Turkey and Northern Lebanon

Apr 10, 2013

UNITED NATIONS, (SANA)- In a new proof added to the group of media reports which unveiled the involvement of Arab and foreign sides in arming the terrorist groups in Syria, a UN report stressed that Libya had become a key source of weapons in the region.The report, which was made by the UN Security Council’s group of experts, who monitor an arms embargo imposed on Libya in 2011, stressed that the arm shipments which had been organized from various locations in Libya, including Misrata and Benghazi, were transferred to Syria via Turkey and northern Lebanon.The report said that the significant size of some shipments and logistics involved suggest that representatives of the Libyan local authorities might at least have been aware of these shipments, if they were not directly involved, Reuters stressed according to the UN report published on Tuesday.The report added that weapons spreading from Libya at an “alarming rate” fueling the war in Syria, Mali and other countries and enhancing the arsenals of extremists and the criminal gangs in the region.‘Illicit flows from Libya are fuelling the existing conflicts in Africa and the Levant and enhancing the arsenals of a huge number of non-state groups, including terrorist groups”, the report said.In the same context, several media reports unveiled operations on supplying terrorist groups in Syria with weapons to hinder the political solution based on dialogue, among which what the American republican senator Rand Paul has admitted last February on sending a shipment of weapons from Libya to Syria under US supervision.Some reports stressed that the Croatian capital, Zagreb had turned into a crossing to the weapons and arms to the terrorist groups in Syria.Another reports held Washington and its allies responsible for training terrorists in camps in Jordan.

THE ROTHSCHILDS ARE PLANNING WORLD WAR III WITH THE AID OF THEIR SAUDI PUPPETS

” LEAFLET: On the Eve of War—Glass-Steagall Now Would Change Everything
October 25, 2013 • 9:16AM

Over this past week, a series of meetings which took place between the heads of state of China, India, and Russia indicate a sense of urgency among those three nations to step up discussions and collaboration, at a time when the Obama-led United States and a bankrupt Europe continue to push the world security situation to the brink of disaster.

Saudi Arabia’s Prince of Terror Bandar bin Sultan, head of Saudi intelligence, issued a public warning to the US over the weekend. The Wall Street Journal reports that Bandar “invited a Western diplomat to the Saudi Red Sea city of Jeddah over the weekend to voice Riyadh’s frustration with the Obama administration and its regional policies,” telling the unnamed diplomat that Saudi Arabia would cut back cooperation with the US (the CIA and others) on arming the Syrian rebels due to Washington’s failure to bomb Syria, the peace talks with Iran, and other regional issues, which stand in the way of the British/Saudi sponsored Sunni-Shia long war. Bandar said the Saudis would work with others on the Syria project, such as Jordan and France, rather than the US.
In regard to Saudi Arabia’s announced rejection of the offer to join the United Nations Security Council (after campaigning to get on), Bandar said : “This was a message for the U.S., not the U.N..”
Bandar has been documented by LaRouche’s EIR and others to have been the primary Saudi controller of the 9/11 attck on the United States by Saudi terrorist, at least several of whom were sponsored and funded by Bandar, who at the time was ambassador to the U.S., and his wife. The censored 28 pages of the 9/11 report which Obama refuses to release, document some of these facts.
Bandar has gone balistic since Obama was forced to give up his planned war on Syria. Bandar went to Moscow to attempt to bribe and/or threaten Putin to support the war — in fact, several terrorist attacks in the region of the planned winter Olympics in Sochi are likely due to Bandar carrying out those threats when Putin refused to give in.
Meanwhile, Saudi Foreign Minister Prince Saud al-Faisal hosted a lunch for Secretary John Kerry at his private residence in Paris on Monday. A senior State Department official told reporters after the lunch that Kerry tried to convince the Saudis to take the UN seat, telling Saud that the US “values Saudi Arabia’s leadership in the region and the international community”, the US official said.
What that leadership means was demonstrated on Monday, when Prince Bandar followed up his threat to the US with a meeting in Jeddah, bringing Saudi King Abdullah, King Abdullah of Jordan and UAE Defense Minister (and heir apparent) Mohammad ben Zayed. All the intelligence, defense and security chiefs of the three countries were present (with Bandar heading the gang, of course). The theme, according to the Saudi press was to “have a comprehensive discussion about the current developments in the Arab world, the region and the world”!
Present in the meeting was Prince Salman ben Sultan, deputy defense minister of Saudi Arabia and the field coordinator from Jordan of the Saudi invasion into southern Syria, and most probably the architect of the Ghouta chemical weapons provocation. Note that Salman has been working with Bandar for many years, including the period of preparation of the 9/11 attack, as Salman was working in the Embassy in Washington under Bandar!
The editorial of the London-based Saudi daily Asharq Al-Awsat writes that Prince Salman, the Crown Prince, who said in the summit of the Organization of Islamic Conference recently: “If we fail to get the support in the UN, we will have to turn our back to the UN and build our own capabilities to solve our problems with our hands!” ” http://larouchepac.com/node/28623

On Tuesday, Oct. 22, the former head of Saudi intelligence at the time of the 9/11 attacks, Prince Turki bin-Faisal, delivered a tirade against the United States that mirrored the attack the same day in the Wall Street Journal by Prince Bandar bin-Sultan. However, the broadside freakout was not directed against President Obama, but against the war-avoidance faction that forced Obama to “blink” and reverse orders for the massive planned attack on Syria.
Saudi embassy, Washington, D.C.
Prince Turki assailed the United States for failing to launch military strikes against Syria, and claimed that the Kingdom had rejected the coveted seat on the UN Security Council, because Washington had failed to bomb Syria and because Russia and China persisted in vetoing UN sanctioned military action. To make matters perfectly clear, Prince Turki singled out General Martin Dempsey for special attack, because he refused to follow President Obama’s explicit orders to arm the Syrian rebels, orders that General Dempsey said were not in the Pentagon’s plans. For this, Prince Turki accused Gen. Dempsey of giving “comfort and solace to criminals.”
Prince Turki made clear that Saudi Arabia is opposed to the P5+1 talks with Iran, because Iran’s actions in the region go far beyond the nuclear issue and involve Iranian destabilizations throughout the region, particularly in Bahrain. Mirroring Bandar, Prince Turki threatened that Saudi Arabia would seek alliances with France and Turkey.
Prince Turki’s remarks were delivered during the keynote luncheon at the 30th annual conference of the National Council on US-Arab Relations in Washington. After concluding his remarks, Turki left the stage without taking any questions. He was immediately followed by General Lloyd Austin, the new Commander-in-Chief of the Central Command. While Gen. Austin’s remarks were prepared in advance, at one point in his speech, he responded directly to Prince Turki.
During discussion of Syria, Gen. Austin focused on Al Nusra and other Al Qaeda-linked jihadist groups operating in Syria and, in clear and loud voice, warned that they are one of the greatest threats to regional peace and security. He identified them as foreign-funded foreign fighters who are getting combat experience in Syria and will return, well-armed, to their home countries throughout the CENTCOM region to pose a durable terrorist threat. While he did not mention Prince Turki’s speech or Saudi Arabia by name, it was clear to everyone in the audience of about 1,000 attendees that he was directly responding to the attacks on the U.S. war-avoidance efforts.
According to one former U.S. ambassador attending the NCUSAR event, the Saudis were, indeed, furious at the U.S. military for refusing Saudi demands to be given the target list of the planned U.S. missile assaults on Syria, which President Obama had ordered and then cancelled. According to the former ambassador, the planned strikes involved more than 500 cruise missiles. ” http://larouchepac.com/node/28647

The following report posted on LaRouche PAC on Sept. 19 needs to be recalled and rubbed in the faces of these and other paid stooges of the British-Saudi Nazi operations, in light of Prince Bandar’s latest threats against the U.S.
On September 13th, Congressional Staffer Kenneth Cummings, an aide to Congressman Chris Van Hollen of Maryland, was presented with the evidence that Saudi Arabia was behind both 9/11 attacks on the United States, on US soil in 2001 and in Benghazi, Libya in 2012, and that the Saudis were also funding and arming Al-Qaeda in Syria. Cummings response to the representatives of LaRouche PAC was to repeatedly insist that “We need the Saudis.” Cummings further asserted that the Congressional leadership would never allow the declassification of the 28 pages of the 9/11 Commission report which details the Saudi financing and operational role in that horrific terrorist assault.
On August 25th, the Wall Street Journal published an article entitled “A Veteran Saudi Power Player works to Build Support to Topple Assad,” which documents the role of Saudi Arabia’s Prince Bandar bin Sultan in lavishly lobbying members of Congress to support Saudi Arabia’s genocidal wars in the Middle East. Multiple intelligence sources have reported that Saudi largesse, in the form of massive contributions, is flowing to members of Congress. Prince Bandar was the Saudi Ambassador to the United States at the time of the 9/11/2001 attacks and his wife, Princess Haifa Al-Faisal wrote checks to the networks around Omar Al-Bayoumi, the handler of the terrorists who murdered our fellow citizens twelve years ago.
Was Kenneth Cummings speaking for himself, or, was he speaking for Congressman Van Hollen who is part of the Democratic Party leadership? If Cummings was speaking out of turn, then Van Hollen should fire him. If this is Van Hollen’s position, then Van Hollen should explain his support for the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, which is an enemy of the United States, as has been documented in the withheld pages of the 9/11 Commission Report.
The Constitution defines treason as “adherence to the enemies of the United States” and “giving them aid and comfort.” Lyndon LaRouche has characterized the continuing support for Saudi Arabia by members of Congress or their staffs as treasonous, given what is known or is readily available to be known about the Saudi role in direct attacks on this country.
In a recent press release, Congressman Walter Jones (R-NC) issued a call for the declassification of the 28 pages of the 9/11 Commission Report. “As we commemorate the 12th anniversary of 9/11, it saddens me that vital evidence of this heinous attack is still being withheld from the American people. As a member of Congress, I had the opportunity to read the 28 pages of the Joint Congressional Inquiry into the attacks that have not been made public, and I believe that keeping this information classified is more about protecting powerful interests than our national security.”
Former Senator Bob Graham, Congressman Jones, and the families of the 9/11 victims have repeatedly called for the release of this information to obtain justice and closure. Congress remains largely silent based on Saudi money, influence, and cowardice in the face of a secret government apparatus which dates from the days of J. Edgar Hoover and Allen Dulles. It is time to end all of this — release the 28 pages now. ”http://larouchepac.com/node/28201http://www.larouchepub.com/lar/2000/terror_memo_2703.html

” Bandar Threatens U.S. and Foreign Journalists Who Exposed Syrian Rebel Role in Chemical Attack
September 23, 2013 • 5:20PM

The two journalists who authored the August 29, 2013 story, “Syrians in Goutha claim Saudi-supplied rebels behind chemical attacks,” published by Mint Press, have been threatened with having their careers “ended” if they do not disavow the story, and both journalists have told Mint Press that they believe that the pressure comes from Saudi Arabia. One author, Yayha Ababneh, who conducted the interviews on the ground that were the guts of the story, told MintPress that he received threats from the Saudi Embassy in Jordan, his home country. Dale Gavlak, the other reporter, an American, has been suspended by Associated Press, and further subjected to “immense amounts of pressure,” according to Mint Press, which said she believes the source of pressure to be Prince Bandar bin Sultan, the head of Saudi intelligence.
Bandar, the former Ambassador to the United States at the time of the 911 attacks, left that post after exposes that showed his wife had provided funding for 911 hijackers through a Saudi Arabian intelligence operative living in the U.S., and after exposes that he had received bribe funds in the range of $2 billion from BAE (formerly called British Aerospace) for arranging the Al Yamamah defense contract deal with Saudi Arabia. Bandar is also a major figure in the suppressed “28 pages” of the report on the 911 attack produced by the U.S. Congress. The “28 pages” were “classified” and pulled from distribution because of their detailed information about the role of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, its charities, bank accounts and nationals in the funding of the 911 attack.
On September 21, MintPress which was founded earlier this year and is edited by Mnar Muhawesh, a Palestinian American journalist, put out a lengthy statement in response to Gavlak’s claims that she had not authored the August 29 story.
MintPress editor Ms. Muhawesh wrote:
“Dale [Gavlak] is under mounting pressure for writing this article by third parties. She notified MintPress editors and myself on August 30th and 31st via email and phone call, that third parties were placing immense amounts of pressure on her over the article and were threatening to end her career over it. She went on to tell us that she believes this third party was under pressure from the head of the Saudi Intelligence Prince Bandar himself, who is alleged in the article of supplying the rebels with chemical weapons.
“On August 30th, Dale asked MintPress to remove her name completely from the byline because she stated that her career and reputation was at risk. She continued to say that these third parties were demanding her to disassociate herself from the article or these parties would end her career. On August 31st, I notified Dale through email that I would add a clarification that she was the writer and researcher for the article and that Yahya was the reporter on the ground….
“Yahya [Ababneh] has recently notified me that the Saudi embassy contacted him and threatened to end his career if he did a follow up story on who carried out the most recent chemical weapons attack and demanded that he stop doing media interviews in regards to the subject.”
The statement from MintPress adds, “We are aware of the tremendous pressure that Dale and some of our other journalists are facing as a result of this story, and we are under the same pressure as a result to discredit the story. We are unwilling to succumb to those pressures for MintPress holds itself to the highest journalistic ethics and reporting standards….”
In terms of Gavlak’s role, MintPress says:
“Gavlak pitched this story to MintPress on August 28th and informed her editors and myself that her colleague Yahya Ababneh was on the ground in Syria. She said Ababneh conducted interviews with rebels, their family members, Ghouta residents and doctors that informed him through various interviews that the Saudis had supplied the rebels with chemical weapons and that rebel fighters handled the weapons improperly setting off the explosions.
“When Yahya had returned and shared the information with her, she stated that she confirmed with several colleagues and Jordanian government officials that the Saudis have been supplying rebels with chemical weapons, but as her email states, she says they refused to go on the record.
“Gavlak wrote the article in its entirety as well as conducted the research. She filed her article on August 29th and was published on the same day.” [all emphasis in the original] ”http://larouchepac.com/node/28248http://larouchepac.com/node/28287

2) BANDAR, THE SAUDIS AND AL QAEDA ARE ALSO LINKED WITH THE BUSH FAMILY AND CARLYLE.
( THE BUSH FAMILY’S BRITISH FASCISM http://larouchepac.com/node/27310 )
” former President George H. W. Bush, then a senior adviser to Carlyle ”
” The Bush family has had a long and mutually profitable connection with the corrupt Saudi oil dictatorship. Prince Bandar, Saudi ambassador to the United States, has been an honored guest both at the Bush I summer home in Kennebunkport, Maine, and at Bush 11’s getaway in Crawford, Texas (hence his nickname, “Bandar Bush”). Bandar expressed his gratitude to Bush I by donating $1 million to the Bush Presidential Library in Texas. And Bandar’s prodding prompted Saudi King Fahd to send another $1 million to Barbara Bush’s campaign against illiteracy.
Saudi Prince al-Walid contributed half a million petrodollars to help launch the George Herbert Walker Bush Scholarship Fund at Phillips Academy, the alma mater of both Bush presidents. The depth of these connections was highlighted when the former president visited the Saudis to “discuss U.S.-Saudi business relations” with Crown Prince Abdullah during his son’s 2000 presidential campaign.
And then there is the bin Laden problem. The bin Laden family, a key Carlyle investor, stood to make millions of dollars from the war on terror-a war that has as its chief villain a member of their own family. The bin Ladens withdrew from the Carlyle Group in late October 2001, but it’s not just the bin Laden family proper that was problematic for the Bushes. It turns out that Prince Bandar’s wife, Princess Haifa, had made charitable contributions that may have helped finance two of the 9/11 hijackers. ” http://www.thirdworldtraveler.com/Bush_Gang/CarlyleGroup_TETTR.html
” Carlyle emerged from the shadows in spite of itself on September 11, 2001. That day, the group had organized a meeting at Washington’s Ritz Carlton Hotel with five hundred of its largest investors. Frank Carlucci and James Baker III played masters of ceremony. George Bush senior made a lightning appearance at the beginning of the day. The presentation was quickly interrupted, but one detail escaped no one. One of the guests wore the name bin Laden on his badge. It was Shafiq bin Laden, one of Osama’s many brothers. The American media discovered Carlyle. One journalist, Dan Briody, wrote a book about the group’s hidden side, “The Iron Triangle”, and takes an interest in the close relations between the Bush clan and the Saudi leadership.” http://www.culturechange.org/CarlyleEmpire.html
” The collection of influential characters who now work, have worked, or have invested in the [ Carlyle ] group would make the most convinced conspiracy theorists incredulous. They include among others, John Major, former British Prime Minister; Fidel Ramos, former Philippines President; Park Tae Joon, former South Korean Prime Minister; Saudi Prince Al-Walid; Colin Powell, the present Secretary of State; James Baker III, former Secretary of State; Caspar Weinberger, former Defense Secretary; Richard Darman, former White House Budget Director; the billionaire George Soros, and even some bin Laden family members. You can add Alice Albright, daughter of Madeleine Albright, former Secretary of State; Arthur Lewitt, former SEC head; William Kennard, former head of the FCC, to this list. Finally, add in the Europeans: Karl Otto Poehl, former Bundesbank president; the now-deceased Henri Martre, who was president of Aerospatiale; and Etienne Davignon, former president of the Belgian Generale Holding Company ” http://www.culturechange.org/CarlyleEmpire.html

UNETHICAL JOURNALISM – FOX News supports military action against the Assad government of Syria but does not inform its viewers that the network’s owner, Rupert Murdoch, is part-owner of an oil exploration company illegally exploiting the resources of Israeli-occupied Syria.
Millions of Americans get their news from FOX News, the Wall Street Journal, or through some other news outlet owned by Rupert Murdoch. FOX News and Murdoch-owned news outlets generally support U.S. military action against Syria, but they do not inform their viewers and readers that Mr. Murdoch has a vested interest in war with Syria. Rupert Murdoch is part-owner of an Israeli-American company that has been granted the rights to explore for oil on the Golan Heights – Israeli-occupied Syrian land. It is highly unethical for FOX News not to disclose this information to its viewers.
Israel has granted oil exploration rights inside Syria, in the Israeli-occupied Golan Heights, to Genie Energy. Rupert Murdoch and Lord Jacob Rothschild are major shareholders of Genie Energy – which also has interests in shale gas in the United States and shale oil in Israel. Dick Cheney is also on the company’s advisory board.
It is illegal under international law for Israel to grant oil exploration rights on occupied territory, as Craig Murray wrote in his February 2013 article “Israel Grants Oil Rights in Syria to Murdoch and Rothschild”:
For Israel to seek to exploit mineral reserves in the occupied Golan Heights is plainly illegal in international law. Japan was successfully sued by Singapore before the International Court of Justice for exploitation of Singapore’s oil resources during the Second World War. The argument has been made in international law that an occupying power is entitled to operate oil wells which were previously functioning and operated by the sovereign power, in whose position the occupying power now stands. But there is absolutely no disagreement in the authorities and case law that the drilling of new wells – let alone fracking – by an occupying power is illegal.
The fact that Jacob Rothschild and Rupert Murdoch are invested in oil exploration efforts in occupied Syria suggests that they support the overthrow of the Assad government in Damascus in order to weaken Syria and divide the nation in much the same way as Yugoslavia was dismembered in the 1990s. ”http://therebel.org/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=686198:rupert-murdoch-and-lord-rothschild-the-oil-barons-of-occupied-syria&catid=139:bollyn&Itemid=1310&acm=636_685
